Crawford Australia has been announced a finalist in the 2023 Australian Cyber Security Awards, in the category of Cyber Consulting Company of the Year.
Having dedicated cyber solutions in place since 2015, Crawford’s global expertise around cyber claims became well known long before cyber was the hot topic that it is today.
Over the past two years Crawford Australia has evolved to develop a product gaining traction in the local Australian market. We have invested to devise, improve upon and deliver a complete end-to-end turnkey solution which is agile in its ability to respond to the complete spectrum of cyber risk, be it a locally-confined straightforward IT breach, or a catastrophic ransomware attack with global consequences.
Crawford Australia has gained finalist status in these prestigious awards for our local ‘claims-led, lawyer supported’ model which assists clients respond and mitigate the damage from cyber-related events. Our team provides specialist claims management services from the outset, while also being able to support any parallel incident response needs without conflict.
As technology interweaves more deeply with our business processes and systems, the risk of cyber security incidents continues to grow. The threats of cyber-related property damage, reputational harm, legal exposure, business interruption, and more, loom large and many organisations, big and small, are ill-equipped and underprepared to manage the fallout from these incidents.
Our in-house expertise is combined with pre-approved and highly vetted vendors across IT forensics, dark web monitoring, extortion, crisis communications professionals and more. Together, with Crawford and our panel of relevant experts, an organisation’s total cyber incident response is covered.
Our in-house cyber team consists of incident response coordinators, loss adjusters, claims managers, forensic accountants and lawyers. We works with insurers and your insureds to help project manage the entire response to a cyber incident, drawing upon our panel of experts where necessary.
All of the above is undertaken with a view to mitigating the impact of the incident, whilst controlling cost and spend from the outset.
We congratulate our exceptional cyber experts within Crawford TPA, Crawford Forensic Accounting Services (Specialty Loss Adjusting) and HBA Legal who seamlessly work together to provide our clients with a hassle-free solution following a cyber attack.
